Mean and standard deviation of the surface groups profilometry (in μm).
Rugosity parameters | Z | Rq | Ra | Rz |
---|---|---|---|---|
Group A | 0.91 ± 0.11 | 0.15 ± 0.01 | 0.12 ± 0.02 | 0.94 ± 0.10 |
Group B | 1.96 ± 0.13 | 0.42 ± 0.06 | 0.29 ± 0.03 | 1.26 ± 0.09 |
Group C | 3.84 ± 1.18 | 0.93 ± 0.07 | 0.70 ± 0.05 | 3.12 ± 0.91 |
Group D | 2.93 ± 1.02 | 0.82 ± 0.19 | 0.56 ± 0.10 | 2.59 ± 0.89 |
Z indicates longest distance recorded between the peak and the valley, high variation of the valleys; Ra, arithmetic average of the absolute values of all profile points; Rq, the root-mean square of the values of all points; Rz, the average value of the absolute heights of the 5 highest peaks and the depths of the 5 deepest valleys.
